NFS Fam, the time has arrived. The first Need for Speed™ Unbound post-launch update is here ready for you to tear up the streets all over again. Let’s get into it.
The Vol 2 update introduces brand new ways to enjoy Lakeshore with your friends or on your own.
The streets of Lakeshore just got hotter! High-speed chases are now a team sport in Lakeshore Online, link up with others and show the cops who owns this town. Stay ahead of the chase to make Bank while your friends help knock them off your tail, or take the Heat off you for their own rewards. Need backup? Don’t worry, it is easier than ever to see who’s in your hood and ready for action.
This city doesn’t sleep! Each day you can log-in to find three new challenges to master, earning you XP and Bank to precision-tune your rides or to craft a new custom look. Complete enough challenges and there may be an extra special luxury ride waiting for you - you’ll have to find out for yourself.
You can also take on thirty new Hot Lap activities scattered throughout Lakeshore for an intense 30-second race, pitting your driving skills against the clock. Drive smooth and fast to be in with a chance to win a selection of new rewards, including stickers, driving effects, and poses.
Two new Rumble playlists with three races in each have been added, as well as four new Endurance events, two new Street Races, and a pair of new Standard Playlists. Plus, existing Playlists have also had a reshuffle to keep things fresh. Complete playlists in a Lotus and you can find a Rare Custom Lotus Emira Balmain Edition 2021 sitting in Rydell’s garage with your name on it.

Want more? What if I told you you could get your hands on Waru's very special ride? Well, those with EA Play can speed off in the customizable two-seated Nissan Fairlady ZG 1971, available exclusively to members in Vol 2*. Don’t miss out on the chance to rock this silky smooth straight-six up front and rear-wheel-drive and drift effortlessly around the city streets.
